"Is it finally Liu Yuan's turn?"
The moment Mr. Xuan's voice fell, the entire arena erupted into an uproar.
Countless gazes instantly locked onto Liu Yuan like searchlights.
His presence was like a massive stone crashing into a calm lake, stirring up towering waves within the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy—especially among this elite class.
A previously unknown transfer student…
Yet upon arrival, he had been personally designated as a Core Disciple by Dean Jing Hongchen.
Such treatment was nearly unheard of.
What did being a Core Disciple represent?
Top-tier resources. Direct favor from the Dean.
And above all—overwhelming talent and strength far beyond his peers.
Curiosity. Doubt. Anticipation. Defiance.
All kinds of emotions intertwined in the hearts of the students.
Everyone wanted to see for themselves—
Just what kind of monster this Liu Yuan was.
---
On the referee's stand, Mr. Xuan crossed his arms, leaning forward slightly.
The usual laziness in his eyes had completely vanished, replaced by sharp focus.
"Let me see…"
"Just what kind of student the Dean values so highly."
---
At the edge of the arena, Meng Hongchen wore a sly smile, her beautiful eyes brimming with excitement.
She nudged Xiao Hongchen with her elbow.
"Brother, how long do you think they'll last?"
Xiao Hongchen's lips twitched as he recalled his own instant defeat.
"That doesn't depend on them…"
He paused, his expression complicated.
"It depends on Brother Liu Yuan's mood."
---
Meanwhile, in stark contrast to their relaxed attitude—
Ju Zi and Ke Ke were under immense pressure.
Standing behind Liu Yuan, they could feel countless eyes fixed on them.
It was suffocating.
"Ke Ke… I suddenly feel really nervous…"
Ju Zi's face was pale, her voice trembling slightly.
"It feels like my spirit tool scope is shaking…"
Ke Ke wasn't much better.
Her fists were clenched tight, palms drenched in sweat.
"Same here… What if we drag him down?"
Ju Zi nodded anxiously.
"If we lose… that'll be so embarrassing…"
---
Liu Yuan naturally heard everything.
He turned around, looked at their tense expressions, and smiled gently.
"Relax."
"No need to be so nervous. It's just a training match—winning or losing doesn't matter."
His calm voice carried a strange soothing effect.
The two girls visibly relaxed a little.
But Ju Zi still hesitated.
"Our opponents are strong… Zhang Jiayun's defense is incredible, and his close-range bursts are terrifying."
"Except for Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen, almost no one can beat him consistently."
Liu Yuan nodded slightly.
"Don't worry."
His tone was calm—yet absolute.
---
At that moment, Zhang Jiayun's team stepped onto the arena.
The burly youth at the front stared at Liu Yuan with blazing battle intent.
Soon, Liu Yuan and his team followed.
As they walked, Liu Yuan noticed—
Even after calming them, Ju Zi and Ke Ke were still tense.
He sighed inwardly.
"If this drags on, it'll only make things worse for them."
"In that case… I'll end it instantly."
His eyes sharpened.
---
"Both sides ready!"
Mr. Xuan's voice rang out.
"Match… begin!"
---
The instant the word begin fell—
Zhang Jiayun's team moved immediately, spirit power surging as they prepared to summon their martial souls and spirit tools.
But—
There was someone faster.
Faster than sound.
Faster than thought.
Faster than anyone could react.
---
Liu Yuan moved.
"Martial Soul Possession."
A flash of sacred light—
Emerald and gold intertwined for a fleeting instant.
Then—
"Extreme Speed."
---
Whoosh—!
Everyone's vision blurred.
Liu Yuan vanished.
Gone.
Completely gone.
---
Before anyone could react—
A streak of emerald light had already crossed the entire arena.
And in the next instant—
He appeared behind Zhang Jiayun's team.
---
At that moment, Zhang Jiayun and his teammates had just completed their Martial Soul Possession.
Their spirit tools had only just been raised.
Their minds—
Hadn't even processed what had happened.
---
Liu Yuan moved.
No wasted motion.
No unnecessary flair.
His right leg swept out like a green whip—
Fast. Clean. Absolute.
---
Snap!
---
Under the stunned gaze of the entire arena—
All three of them were sent flying at the same time.
Like broken kites, they soared through the air in perfect arcs—
Before crashing heavily outside the arena.
---
Thud!
Thud!
Thud!
---
Silence.
Dead silence.
---
Zhang Jiayun and his teammates struggled to stand, their faces completely blank.
"What…ust happened?"
"How… are we down here?"
Their minds were in total chaos.
They hadn't even seen Liu Yuan move.
They hadn't even understood how they lost.
---
On the arena—
Liu Yuan stood calmly.
As if nothing had happened.
---
Instant kill.
